The Estate

In Meursault, the wines of the domain are vinified and aged in the winery and historical low-carbon cellars. The Château, the conservatory, the plot and the park spread over 10 hectares all together, now focused on biodiversity and sustainable development.

The Château and its vineyard

This 18th-century Italian-inspired castle was completely renovated in 2024, making it an exceptional place dedicated to the estate’s wines’ tastings. Its elegantly designed lounges open onto a large terrace with a breathtaking view over the vines that produce our flagship Clos du Château wine. Surrounded by a magnificent dry-stone wall, this 8-hectares plot is planted with Chardonnay grapes.

The vines

Château de Meursault is located on the prestigious Meursault appellation, international reference of great white wines. The 67 hectares of the vineyard spread over more than a hundred plots, including 6 Grands Crus, 20 Premiers Crus and a dozen of village and regional appellations Aloxe-Corton, Beaune, Volnay, Pommard,…evocative names like Great Burgundian Climats.

The Winery

The historic winery dedicated to parcelling opens an important page in the history of the Château. This building, close to zero carbon emissions, inspired by the Fontenay Abbey, will host its first harvest in 2026. Dedicated to the vinification of Premiers and Grands Crus, this winery will enable to vinify 2 hectares more per day, meaning a 20% time reduction during harvest. The large Cistercian double-vaulted cellar has also been renovated and temperature-controlled by geothermal energy.

The cellars

The splendid cistercian cellars, dug from the 12th to the 19th centuries, spread over 3500m², under the Château and its outbuildings. The bigger cellar and the historic winery have been renovated with bio-sourced materials. They emit almost no carbon emissions thanks to the 26 geothermal wells dug in the park of Château de Meursault.

The Château's park

Le parc du Château de Meursault

In the park and in the gardens, you discover a chestnut trees path, an orchard, ponds and several cedars including a tercentenary one. We have created a vineyard forest garden to improve robustness and promote biodiversity. With Fabrice Desjours of the La Forêt Gourmande association, we have planted 3,000 plants, 200 melliferous species and resistant to much warmer and arid conditions than 30 years ago. An entire ecosystem in the center of our agroecological project.

The gourmet gardens

The greening of the domain continues with the creation of a gourmet kitchen garden, designed in permaculture. The Mediterranean plants and trees are beginning to bear fruit, which we find delightful.

The Riparian forest

We have created a riparian forest as a surprising sensitive, ecological, greedy and poetic discovery. We replenish the natural environment of the vine by planting mostly edible plants. They improve the mycorrhizal systems which are particularly useful to the resilience of the Clos du Château’s vine, cultivated nearby.
